more writing stuff
Mar. 17th, 2009 04:56 pmEvery good book begins with a protagonist who wants something. - Nathan Bransford
Applying that to that crap I'm working on now:
NaNo novel
-Katharine wants to get married to cement her status in town and the power that comes with it, but while her betrothed is the handsomest man in town, he's also one the most difficult and dim.
-Sam wants to upstage his father by earning his own place in the world of medicine while aiding a backwater town with his modern medicinal training, but his teacher has too many secrets and too few morals to help him gain a foothold.
Fine Art
-Daisuke is deluding himself by thinking he wants a normal freshman year at high school; he actually wants to bone his best friend.
Typical!fantasy story
-At first P. wants to get over the rejection of her first love by finding a new target for her affections while escaping the marriage her parents have arranged for her. Later she wants to figure out the secret of the city. And bone her new crush.
